Farmhouse part 6

“oh thank God. I was expecting you suspect me. No Janvi, I do not think it was you. You said he was still there when you left. So I could easily ask him and find out if what you told was a lie. No Janvi, it was not you. I was thinking what made her go there? It might have been an accident, but getting electrocuted by a fence… it is fishy. And looking at the other 3 unnatural deaths, I think someone is behind this. One death being an accident is acceptable, but now 3 in a row, there is something really wrong. As you said we shall get out of this place as soon as possible. You don’t worry, I will be with you. We should be very alert now.”
What was to be done was done. They were to leave in sometime. Chetan was at the dinner table, eating apple. Janvi was in the room behind him, packing her stuff and getting ready to leave. She could only see his back. There was perfect silence. No one would believe there were 2 people inside the house. And no one would believe that they had come here for a celebration. And then Janvi heard someone speak, it was very feeble initially, she could not clearly distinguish the voices. Who was Chetan talking to? she thought to herself. Slowly she came out of the room, the voice was now clear.
“Saakshi, you were so scared. Your condition after Sanju s death was pathetic. It is good that you died. Now you can be with your Sanju forever. It is alright saakshi, you do not have to thank me. I am your friend, I did my best to see to it that you stay happy. Funny thing electricity is. It turns on a light, but it turned off your light. And such an easy job for me it was. And about sanju, you were right, it was one of us who killed him, but the person whom you suspected was innocent. It was me. Again!!! He was an easy target. He was near the lake, so drunk that I challenged him to stay under water for 5 minutes and he went, and I saw to it that I never came out alive. He died in waist deep water. And Jatin, I just had to persuade him to eat the cake first. And that was not a difficult thing to do. I just told him that I was his last birthday as a bachelor, Janvi s interests would come before his once they got married, hence this is the last time he can have his cake first… And he fell for him.” There was laughter now. Chetan was laughing.
“but they were my friends. I should not have done that to them. I have spent so many years with them. I miss them already.” He said and began to cry.
“Yes they were my friends, but they had no right to laugh at me, make fun of me, and humiliate me. They have been doing it since school. It is not my fault that I am short. Why did they have to make fun of me? Everyone who makes fun of me will have the same end. Only Janvi was sensitive to understand me. Only she is my friend. She might miss Jatin, but she will find someone else, she deserves someone better.” he said, this time with an angry voice.

“oh come on Kaalu!! How can someone kill 3 of his good friends just for making fun of him?”
“Dude, this is just a story. But if you do not mind your tongue and do not stop calling me names, this will become your true story!!!” there was determination in his voice.
